Mini Climate Assembly

Nottingham Extinction Rebellion Alliances Team is inviting you and other environmental, climate justice and social justice organisations to join us for a mini Climate Assembly, run by the Nottingham Climate Assembly. At the Climate Assembly we will get our heads and hearts together to:

  • Come up with plans to tackle the city’s environmental challenges and to minimise their environmental impact.

  • Present our perspective on plans for carbon neutral Nottingham 2028 (CN28)

We’ll decide together how to make the most of our proposals at this crucial time, in the run up to a regional mayoral election and the run up to a general election.

We’ll also give the Climate Assembly team a chance to hone their skills before the city-wide, public Climate Assembly planned for later in 2024.

We really hope that you will be happy to join us on Saturday April 20th at the Sumac Centre, 245 Gladstone Street, Forest Fields, Nottingham NG7 6HX, 11-4 pm (including lunch).

We would like your group or organisation to send 1-2 delegates to the Assembly. Please could you let us know by March 1st 2024 whether you will be accepting this invitation and which people will be coming on behalf of your group or organisation (as well as their email addresses).

If you have any questions at this stage, please don’t hesitate to ask.

*Celebrate our diversity*

This event celebrates 40 years of cooperation, mutual aid and solidarity by Sumac Centre, since being established as the Rainbow Centre in 1984. Rainbow rented a rundown terrace of shops on Mansfield Road from 1985-2001, creating the community that bought the Sumac Centre in 2001. See more history here.

Community Food Hub

In response to the covid-19 crisis we converted the Sumac Centre into a hub for the distribution of foods around our community, for those isolated at home or those that wish to distance themselves from supermarkets crowds or queues.

Goods can be ordered from the stock list and order form by email to sales@veggies.org.uk, for collection from Sumac Centre or delivery to about one mile radius.

You are encouraged to collect for isolated, at-risk, frail or elderly friends and neighbours too.

Many items come from bulk supplies, weighed to order. Cleaning materials & liquid foods may be dispensed in reusable containers.

We aim to stock ethically sourced, wholefood, fair-trade & organic products which, due to the broken food system, may be more expensive than cheap supermarket foods. However we can defer payment for those that have no income. We invite donations to a fund to cover this.

Everything that we stock is vegan and therefore suitable for most dietary, cultural & religious preferences. Gluten free items are also available.

As we are volunteers with limited capacity we are concentrating on Forest Fields (NG7-6) & New Basford (NG7-7).  Local Mutual Aid Networks may be able to help if you need delivery further afield.
